Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose where the PDF gets split?
After uploading, you'll see a thumbnail of every page. Click between any two pages to mark that as a split point, and add as many as you need.
How many files will I end up with?
You'll get one file for every split point you mark, plus one. For example, marking two split points produces three separate PDF files.
What format do I get the split files in?
All parts are downloaded together in a single zip file, with each part as its own PDF.
Will splitting affect the quality of my pages?
No. Each page is copied into its new file exactly as it appeared in the original, with no re-encoding of text or images.
Is my file kept private?
Yes. Uploaded files are processed automatically and removed from our servers shortly after. We never share or inspect your documents.
Is Split PDF free to use?
Yes. There is no cost, no subscription, and no account required. Split as many files as you need.
Can I split a PDF on my phone?
Yes, the tool is fully responsive and works in any modern mobile browser on iOS and Android.
Is there a limit on how many split points I can add?
No. Add as many split points as your document has pages for, as long as at least one page ends up in each resulting file.
